Woo Hoo! $5.00 pay day! Baby needs a new pair of...uh..chicken McNuggets?

Just wanted to let everyone know who might care...and a few people who might not...

I'm getting published.

I sent off a signed contract for a small, moralistic, saccrine piece that I wrote because I have a policy of writing whatever comes to me...not looking a gift muse in the mouth...ya know? Anyway, the piece is called "Promise", and it will be published online in a webzine called "Knights, Dragons and Angels" It's a Christian Science Fiction/ Fantasy webzine.

I actually kind of like the piece because it's a simple, charming story about conflict between a young man just coming of age and his dad...and it's sort of sweet...and a nice break from the deluge of pain, angst, blood, sweat, guts, and violence that is the hallmark of much of my stuff.

For this I will be paid the princely sum of $5.00....which is a hell of a promotion over the "Yeah we'll publish it for $0.00" that I got for some of my poetry...and the "Sorry, you're not our type" letters that I was getting...and hey, it's not like I'm writing for Guidepost or anything...

...so...I only have to produce and sell 10, 000 of these babies every year and I'm set!

I'll let you all know when it hits the fan, so you can check it out.

So, do I get to work line securrity at YOUR book signings? I might not be a closest ninja like SOME people, but I am a highly expirenced security guard, I'll have you know.

Hooray for Trees! And boo for Christians! They don't deserve to read your wonderful prose.

Now I really MUST get published. I can't be the last of the Monkeys. My ego won't allow it.
